SWINE FLU MORE SEVERE – GET VACCINATED BEFORE WINTER SETS IN

South Africans should take preventative action and get vaccinated against the flu virus as soon as possible.

“The highly contagious swine flu was especially severe in the Northern Hemisphere with California reporting 243 deaths, of people all under 65 years old. These viruses are not just a concern for children and the elderly – but healthy individuals as well. As part of preventative healthcare initiatives, more medical schemes are paying for flu shots, so take advantage of the benefit and get vaccinated,” says Graham Anderson, Principal Officer of Profmed.
